Well, content-wise it has some interesting choices. I can see myself using about half of the material there most sessions with the other bits and pieces coming up less often but being valuable when they do. I'm very happy with that - I don't actually need to refer to a lot of information during sessions and 5e is so easy to run that I need less information on the screen. The tables on the edges of this screen probably won't see use very often but I will be extremely glad when I do use them, because having them in front of me will have helped preserve the flow of the game when the players deal me a surprise.I love the art as well. It's traditional, looks good, doesn't have the laughable guy holding a tiny scythe that we always poked fun at on the 4e screen... but much more to the point, the art of the DM screen makes another point about gender equality, and does it well enough and subtly enough that most people don't even seem to have noticed. I still very much look forward to a time when stuff like this is so much expected that I don't end up liking things simply because they're doing things right, but with things as they are I love what they've done here.</blockquote>
